I need this as I am both very hard of hearing and have nueropathy pretty bad. I bought an adapter and a bluetooth set with a built in mic. I am now needing to pair it and for the life of me cannot seem to figure it ouut and what to do next. I want to use my pc awith my cell to make all my calls but my cell says that bluetooth has stopped working. The old over the head headset is making my ears hurt just having it on.

Hey bud did you check and see if they are compatible like 4.0, 3.0 or 2.0 etc etc USB Dongle Once you have it installed use the device you are connecting to discover it (cell phone) by making sure blue tooth is enabled...Then try to search... From what I understand once connected it would only serve a purpose of transferring files, photo's and not phone calls but I may be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does, there'll be a Bluetooth button in action center. Make sure it's turned on. If you don't see the Bluetooth button in action center, try updating your device's driver. Here's how: Go to Start , enter Device Manager, and select it from the list of results. In Device Manager, locate your device, press and hold (or right-click) it, select Update driver, select Search automatically for updated driver software, and then follow the rest of the steps. If Bluetooth is turned on and the driver is up to date but your device still doesn't work, try removing the device and re-pairing it. Here's how: Go to Start , enter Devices, select Bluetooth and other devices settings > select the device > Remove device > Yes. Try pairing again. Make sure that the Bluetooth-enabled audio device is on and discoverable. How you do this varies with devices, so check the info that came with your device or go to the manufacturers website. Connect a wireless display to your Windows PC Turn on your TV or projector. If you're using a Miracast dongle or adapter, make sure it's plugged in to the display. On your PC, make sure Wi-Fi is turned on. On the right side of the taskbar, select the Network icon > Cast, then select your display or wireless adapter. Follow any additional instructions on the screen. Edited January 28, 2022 by KaptCrunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I finally got my pc as recognized as its name but I still can't get the sound to work on any of my Bluetooth stuff. I want to use it as both my gaming headset and for my calls. Why won't the sound connect to it when it shows in the sound menu but still no sound even after making it the default program for said things. I know there is a simple answer but for the time it is alluding me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I have it where it says its paired yet it won't connect. I wonder if by some coincidence I accidentally paired it to my cell. I thought it was off laying by my keyboard. How do I unpair those ?
